Abstract/Contents:"Changes in stubble carbohydrate content during the regrowth of ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) grown under hydroponic conditions at two nitrogen levels were studied as a function of time by high-performance liquid chromatography. Experimental data showed that regrowth at a non-limiting nitrogen level (1.0 mol m-3 NH4NO3) involved two different physiological periods. The first occurred during the first 6 d and was characterized by the mobilization of 60 to 90% of the soluble carbohydrates (i.e. glucose, fructose, sucrose, oligofructans and polyfructans). During the second period (6-28 d of regrowth) carbohydrate contents rose to the values observed prior to cutting (20% of dry matter at the 28th d of regrowth). The effect of low nitrogen conditions (0.2 mol m-3 NH4NO3) was observed only during the second phase. Plants regrown in a nitrogen-starved medium accumulated 2.3-fold more polyfructans than plants regrown in a non-limiting nitrogen medium. Their fructose and glucose contents remained at 2% of dry matter from the end of the first phase of mobilization. The experimental results are interpreted and discussed in terms of the existence of two distinct fructan synthetic pathways."
